My new grandson, Sam was born May 15th. I stayed over and did a night shift. What an experience. I posted about it....grandma's point of view. I call it becoming grand. In becoming a grand-mother. Congratulations, it is just so great!

Enjoy these moments. Even you don't get to sleep, it's all worth it. A baby is like a little treasure. The best things in life are free. Life is the BEST. Life itself. Listen to what your pediatrician has to say, every baby is different and his needs are met only with the aid of a pediatrician of your trust. This is an advice that someone had given me before the birth of my baby. "Listen only to your pediatrician, not even your mother". It kind of surprised me back then but that woman was right when she told me so. Of course we should always listen to the experience of others but a mother's instinct is absolutely irreplaceable.

Wishing you all the best and when you have some free time, I will be happy if you could visit my blog.

ps: I have 2 blogs as my main blog is about a very particular art form, mosaics.

what a wonderful photo! you both look so peaceful! i hope you're enjoying your babymoon and that breastfeeding is going good. remember it just gets easier and easier (the breastfeeding part.. not the being a mom part)!

He is so precious. I only recently discovered your blog and you are by far my favorite daily visit in my blogreel. I just had a baby boy 6 months ago, too, isn't it the most wonderful thing in the world?

I really love your article. I am a freelancer landscape designer. I stay with my 4 months old baby during the week and work in the weekends and drawing during the week. I breastfeed my baby, and yes, while breastfeeding her I try to do things at the computer...Would be really nice if you would open a discussion about " sex after a vaginal delivery". I am very curious how women, men handle this problem.

Obviously I'm way late here, but I had to comment! My husband and I have always thought that our babies (a girl first, and now a boy) both looked like Wallace Shawn too!!! (But they look like him at other times, too, not just when they're being burped.) And I am relieved (no offense to Wallace) that my sweet daughter looks nothing like him now (at 2 1/2). =)
